XRP falls over 6% amid bearish derivatives and market uncertainty

XRP's price dropped for the third consecutive session, trading near $1.422 and down more than 6% for the week. Bearish signals emerged in derivatives markets, with a long-to-short account ratio below 1 and negative perpetual-futures funding, indicating more short positions than long. Broader market conditions, including higher U.S. Treasury yields, a stronger dollar, and geopolitical tensions, also dampened risk appetite. The Federal Reserve's recent rate hike and hints at further increases add to the cautious sentiment affecting speculative assets like XRP.

XRP is trading at Rp25.333 on Pluang as of Oct 08, 2026 16:41 WIB, down 2.96% in the last day, continuing its recent decline. Despite the bearish signals in derivatives markets mentioned in the article, Pluang data shows a strong buy interest with 84% of order activity on the buy side. XRP's market cap stands at Rp1.591,41 trillion, with a typical hold time of 71 days, indicating moderate investor confidence amid the current cautious sentiment.
